Spread half of the mixture onto the center of a piece of parchment paper. Roll the paper from both ends until it wraps around the dough, forming a cylinder.
Seal the ends of the parchment paper and repeat the process with the remaining dough.
Place the dough rolls in the freezer.
When ready to bake, remove the parchment paper and slice the dough into rounds about 5 mm thick using a sharp knife.
Arrange the cookies on a greased and floured baking sheet.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool before serving.
